The Beach House - stunning sea views and sunsets

AndrewRating, 5 stars5 months ago

We were very busy with family events during our stay so we didn't really get the full beach/Bach experience. We did love our morning beachcombing and would love to stay there again for longer especially in summer. Recommended for that classic kiwi Bach holiday!

Modern Miro Park Mansion

LalitRating, 5 stars3 months ago

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful and well-equipped property. The house was spotless, cozy, and perfectly located—close to town yet peaceful with stunning views. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the outdoor area was great for relaxing. One highlight was the spa pool—a great addition to the property. However, the water felt a bit over-chlorinated, which meant we couldn’t stay in for more than 10 minutes at a time. That’s just a small detail in an otherwise perfect stay, and I’m sure it’s something that can be easily adjusted. Overall, we highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Ohakune. It’s a wonderful spot, and we would happily return in the future!

Executive Mountain Retreat

SiobhanRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

The stay at this house was great! Our family of eight, including two under two, found the location and properties amenities perfect for a family night in and enjoying each other’s property! Vess’ instructions for our stay were spot on and left us without questions from the moment we arrived until we left. Her communication was amazing from the moment we booked our stay. Would most definitely recommend this home to visit when going to Ohakune! 😊

Cole Cottage with Spa - Ohakune

NicholasRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

A Clean, comfortable, and quiet stay. Centred by a Beautiful solid wood dining table there was good indoor/outdoor flow in an older wooden home. Everything in working order (did not use the sauna or wood burner). Responsive and proactive host with clear instructions. Our party was sad to leave, so would stay here again.

Getaway on Miro

VinayRating, 5 stars3 months ago

Fantastic location and an amazing host. Jess’s beautiful house is nestled in a small cluster of houses surrounding a little lake. We were fortunate that weather played a good part adding to the joy of visiting the Skywaka and walks around the town . Jess was very helpful and prompt as a host . It’s going to be a certain repeat in winters😊

The Quarters Alpine Retreat

4.86 out of 5 average rating, 50 reviews2 weeks ago

Our group had the best stay at Sarah's house in National Park, perfect location, right by the crossing so we didn't need to leave too early! Also everything was just as described, firewood stocked so we had the fire on, stocked with cooking utensils as well as shampoo and conditioner. Overall it was a great place for the 11 of us to stay, looking forward to staying again, thanks Sarah!

Bookdale

I cannot rave enough about Tess and her beautiful home! The place was peaceful, beautiful, comfortable and made us feel like "aaaaaaahhhh" when we walked in. Tess' welcoming messaging, and her nearly immediate response to our questions made us feel really welcomed and cared for. It was among the most memorable of our stays while traveling in New Zealand, and we hope we will be lucky enough to find our way back here one day!

Brand spanking since 2023 Chalet views

Great place to stop overnight if you’re traveling in North Island. My family and I went on a trip to Papamoa beach and this home was a great choice at the halfway point. Would recommend a friends, we went in the summer, but I can only imagine it is amazing in the winter.

Cosy Cottage With Spa & Fireplace

4.91 out of 5 average rating, 11 reviews3 months ago

The home was clean, comfortable and perfect for our family of 3’s needs. We enjoyed our stay and definitely would reconsider if we were to visit again. Property managers were responsive, helpful and gracious. One minor issue - we felt that ‘there were too many rules’ - this didn’t take away from our overall strongly positive impression, however. Walkable distance to the town and good options for meals - The Cypress Tree and Osteria Ohakune were excellent.

Comfy, pet friendly house for groups & families

JoRating, 5 stars6 months ago

This house was perfect for our family group of 9 adults. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking large meals, and it was great having two full bathrooms. The fire and some heaters kept us warm at night.

70's Lake Haven

NatalieRating, 5 stars1 month ago

A lovely house to stay in by beautiful Lake Taupo. The house was just as described and had plenty of room for 4 adults and 3 children to stay. The view was stunning and the deck was great to relax on. Kitchen was well equipped and the kids absolutely loved the selection of toys! No wifi as informed on the listing but phone signal was good. A slightly longer walk than expected down to the lakefront (15 mins with kids) but well worth it for the tranquil, stunning lake front to paddle around in and use the kayaks. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Two bedroom house near to town

JewelleRating, 5 stars1 month ago

House was well equipped and very spacious.Lovely large back and front gardens.Bus stop nearby but not many buses so we used taxis into town and back. Host was very helpful on the two occasions I called her. There were only 2 of us but would be great for a family. We enjoyed our stay.
